[Henrik Ronellenfitsch]

Hello,
is there any way to get the caller's IP in my XMLRPC-method?

Thanks,
Henrik

I don't know the answer to this, but I would also like to know. But I'm curious
what you want to use it for? Personally I want to use XMLRPC to make it to make
it so pages on my web server can query information from my own personal pc, but
I want to make sure that only my server can do this and not random people on the
net.

For this see XMLRPC::Server#get_valid_ip and
XMLRPC::Server#set_valid_ip.

That doesn't help me, though, because I have to connect to the caller to
send him some data (e.g. a file).
Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Henrik

Have the caller tell you his IP?

Have the caller tell you his IP?

That's a possibility, but the caller probably sits behind a NAT so he
could only give his local address.
But thanks,
